    In this very special episode, Natalie sits down with (former) co-host Rev. Amanda Weatherspoon and guest Rev. Nancy McDonald Ladd, former RRUUC Senior Minister. Both ministers have moved on to new positions since the recording of this conversation, and Natalie gets all the deets on their view of ministry and how their progressive spirituality has changed over the years. Plus, Rev. Nancy tells us about her latest book: Seeds of a New Way: Nurturing Authentic & Diverse Religious Leadership.

    Or, at least, it's a little more complicated than what you said. (See the full TikTok from @nononsensespirituality: www.tiktok.com/@nononsensespirituality/video/7275412454447009070)

    In this episode, Rev. Amanda and Natalie dive into Millenial/Gen Z church discourse. Namely, are we still attending church? Are our generations killing the church industry? We both find value in the existence of spiritual spaces and think more young folks are still "doing church" than one would think at a first glance.

    Rev. Amanda and Natalie are joined by our first guests! Rev. Sean Neil-Barron and Father Jerry Maynard have come on the pod so we can chat all things queer theology: what is it? How do we do it? & isn't it divine to be queer?

    You can find Rev. Sean's The Foothills Deeper Pod wherever you get your podcasts. Also check out linktr.ee/upliftcollective to see the work that UUs are doing in partnership with the Side With Love Campaign.

    All things related to Fr. Jerry can be found by googling "Father Jerry Maynard, the People's Priest." Or go to revjerrymaynard.org.
